Antidromic sensory NCS | Latency (ms) | Amplitude (μV) | Velocity (m/s) | Motor NCS | Latency proximal/distal (ms) | Amplitude proximal/distal (mV) | Velocity (m/s) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sural: posterior ankle | R = NE; L = NE | R = NE; L = NE | R = NE; L = N | Tibial: medial malleolus-abductor hallucis brevis; popliteal fossa-medial malleolus | R = NE; L = NE | R = NE; L = NE | R = NE; L = NE |
Radial: thumb | R = 4.2; L = NE | R = 0.13; L = NE | R = 31; L = NE | ||||
Ulnar: digit 5 | R = 2.3; L = 2.6 | R = 6.2; L = 1.5 | R = 52.2; L = 46.2 | Common peroneal: ankle-extensor digitorum brevis; below fibula-ankle | R = 11.9/4; L = NE | R = 0.1/0.1; L = NE | R = 36.7; L = NE |
Electromyography showed fibrillation potentials and positive sharp waves in the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius medialis muscles, bilaterally.
